My Project

Scholastic News is a valuable resource that provides students with current events and engaging articles that enhance their learning experience by connecting classroom lessons to real-world applications. By requesting multimedia resources, and print, students will be able to deepen their understanding of complex topics and develop critical thinking skills. The objectives of this project include fostering a deeper appreciation for global issues, improving reading comprehension, and promoting active participation in discussions. Our students possess unique qualities such as curiosity, creativity, and a strong sense of empathy, which will be further nurtured through the use of these resources. Their strengths lie in their ability to think critically, collaborate effectively, and communicate their ideas clearly, all of which will be enhanced through the implementation of Scholastic News in the classroom.
